From the back pages, May 20: England’s Stuart Broad and Jimmy Anderson ‘as good as I’ve seen’ – Cook
Alastair Cook’s first Test on home soil as England captain ended in a comfortable win, although it took an hour of supremely destructive fast bowling from Stuart Broad and James Anderson to lend the start of the Ashes summer something resembling a sense of decisive momentum. “We thought that would be a pretty tough chase,” Cook said after England’s 170-run victory. “We knew if we put the ball in the right areas we could cause damage. But there’s still a lot of nerves in there when you walk in in the morning.” (The Guardian)
